Ordering unit in Purchasing the Material master
Dear all,
We have 2 material codes for same material e.g.
1. ABC --- having Base unit 'EA' & no ordering unit defined in the master. stock - 100nos
2. PQR --- having base unit 'EA' , but ordering unit is 'KG' in the purchasing view. + additinal data - Unit of measure is defined as 1 EA = 1 EA & 1 KG = 1 EA. stock -60kg.
Both materials having stock in the system. We want to use 'PQR' code only.
How to issue PQR material in 'EA' against production order ?
It is coming in 'KG' unit.
Have I to remove/change ordering unit in additional data ?
i.e. e.g. 1KG = 400 EA.
How to issue PQR material in 'EA' against production order ?
It is coming in 'KG' unit.
unit for goods issue is an extra unit and has nothing to do with order unit.
You can change/remove the goods issue unit in material master storage location view

select the alternative unit and click the button for line deletion below the overview

Units of Measures found in the material master.
Hi,
What is significance of different Units of Measures found in the material master.
AjayHi,
Order unit
Unit of measure in which a material is ordered. It is the default unit in purchasing functions.
Order price unit
Unit in which the vendor invoices you. The order price unit is defined in the purchase order or in the purchasing info record. If you have defined an order price unit in the PO, the goods receipt will be recorded in both the order unit and the order price unit.
Sales unit
Unit of measure in which a material is sold. It automatically appears as the default in a sales order and can be changed there.
Unit of issue
Unit of measure in which a material is issued from the warehouse/stores. You can use this unit of measure in conjunction with goods issues and physical inventory activities.
Any quantities that you specify in a unit of measure other than the base unit are automatically converted into the base unit by the system. To make this possible, you must enter the ratio for conversions between alternative units and the base unit (the conversion factor) in the material master record. You can enter this information when specifying the alternative unit of measure

Purchase group in Purchase order from creator not from Material Master
Hi All,
Can you please help me with the next one?
Points rewarded.
In the materialmaster is purchase group 44B entered but
The default purchase group of the buyer is 55C. Is it possible
that the value 55C is automaticaly placed in the PO when
the buyer creates the Purchase order?
At this moment always the default value from Material
master is proposed.
Thank you in advance,
Eric.Hi,
You have to look at the overall process.
The idea of the Purchasing Group is to indicate which buyer manages that material in that plant.
SO when the system (or a user) generates a requisition for that item at that plant, the system then knows who should convert it etc.
So my question to you would be, "why have you got a default P group in the material master record that is NOT the buyer who manages that item at that plant?"
If several buyers share a list of materials then just use one P group for the "group" of buyers, instead of separate P groups for each buyer.
The system doesn't have the option to automatically overwrite the P group on the requisition because this may be someone just "helping out" the buyer who is busy and so it does not mean that the requisition should be changed to be linked to this other P group.
You already have the field "created by" on the PO and so if you need to report on who created what, then simply use this field instead of P group.
But the P group on the material master (and therefore the requisition) shoudl ALWAYS be the P group that will convert reqs for this item plant combination.

Changing the Unit of Measurement in Material Master
Dear Experts,
Material DF21DENG (fert) was created with KGS (kilogram per second) as its unit of measurement. A material BOM was now created for DF21DENG.
I intend to change the unit of DF21DENG from KGS to KG (kilogram). On doing this in the Basic data view of DF21DENG, i get the message " change is not possible because a BOM exists for this material".
In the BOM of DF21DENG, I set the deletion flag on & tried to change the unit in the Material master again but got the same massage.
Please how can I effect this change?This response was helpful but was solved the problem was that; from the Edit, i selected Delete from the drop down & then the alternative BOM was deleted.

How to include field Internal order in the material master for SD orders
Hello,
I would like to know how I can bring the field "Internal Order" to the material master, so I can create materials with assignments to internal orders.
We want to create Sales Orders where when we enter on order item with a material, the internal order is derived automatically from the material master.
Thank you in advance!
Jose EximenoHello,
I am not familiar with the field "product attributes" in relation with entering the field "internal order"...
Could you be a little more specific on how product attributes can be used to enter the internal order number in the material master?
Best regards,

Availability Check Changed on the Material Master Update Existing Orders
I need to know if there is a way to update existing orders once changes have been made to the material. Currently the only way that I know of is to go into individual orders change the plant save then change it back to the original plant on the order then the changes take effect. How can I achieve this without touching every order individually. Is there something to mass update existing orders to take a new snapshot of the material master settings for a material.
Try with t.code VA05 - Open sales order list.
Execute this list. In the output, sort the data by plant. Then go to menu Edit -> mass change -> new plant. Change the plant for group of sales orders that have similar plants. Then again do the same thing to bring the previous plant in the sales orders.
This can help reduce the time instead of going one by one.

Unit of measure in Material Master after PO's created
Hello Everyone,
I know that we can't change the material measure unit once PO's and other documents are created.
What can I do with the PO so i can change the material measure unit?
Thanks in Advance.From OSS note 138767
Within the material master record maintenance, you want to change the base unit of measure (base unit). During the change, the system performs extensive checks in order to avoid inconsistencies in the applications which use the material master.
In particular, the following checks are performed:
The base unit must not be defined as an alternative unit of measure for the material
No International Article Number must be assigned to the base unit
No proportion/product units must be defined for the material
No configurable material must be assigned
The material must not be used as a configurable material
Stock must neither exist for the previous period nor for the current period
No physical inventory must be active
No reservations or dependent requirements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
No planned orders must exist
No purchase requisitions, purchase orders or scheduling agreements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
No WM transfer requirements, no WM quants or no WM posting change notices must exist
The material must not be a bill of material
The material must not be contained in a bill of material
The material must not be used as a production resource/tool
The material must not be used in task lists
No standard cost estimate must exist for the current or future period
No production orders must exist
No planned independent requirements must exist
No run schedule headers must exist
If the base unit has dimensions, no serial number profile must be assigned
No sales and distribution documents must exist which have status Not processed or Partially processed.
Solution
If necessary, all reasons mentioned above must be eliminated by archiving the objects listed. -
Order unit in Purchase Info Record
Hi,
I would like to restrict users from giving in Order Units in Purchase info records which are not declared in the Material Master.
E.g: Materal Master had units EA and CAR declared and with the conversion factor.
No users should be able to enter a unit apart from EA or CAR into the Info Record Order Unit.
Points assured.
Regards
Govind.Hi Govind,
Goto SPRO>MM>Purchasing>Purchasing Info Record>
Define screen Layout>Select ME11> Select Quantities>
Select Order unit (Purchasing)> Make the entry from reqd entry to Display.
Save the changes. Now user cannot able to enter a new unit apart from the one in Material Master.
Hope this would be helpful

How to change the base UoM in the material master?
Hi,
I want to change the base UoM in the material master for a particular material but I can't change irt with MM02 as system says it has open routings for this material.
I have set the deletion flag on the routings but still system shows open routings while changing UoM.
Is there any standard SAP program by which UoM can be changed if open POs, stock etc. are present in the system?
Thanks,
InputHI
It is possible to change the Base unit of measure in the following cases:
1) If there are no stocks of the material in the syatem
2)If there are no purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements for the material.
3)If a purchase order or purchase order item is not being created or changed.
Procedure for changing is:
Access the material master record in Change mode.
Overwrite the old base unit of measure with the new one on any departmental data screen.
Save the change.
Thanking you. -
Update info record when changing units of measure in material master
Hello,
is there any possibility for an automatic change of info record when changing conversion factors in the material master ?
We have 3 units of measure in our material master: the base unit and 2 alternative units. The first alternative unit is the order unit and the second alternative unit is the order price unit. So in our purchase info records we maintain an order unit, which differs from the base unit and we also maintain an order price unit, which differs from the base unit and the order unit.
If we now change the conversion factors between the units in the material master, we would like to get an automatic change of the converions in the info record (to order unit and order price unit), which have the same previous conversions.
For IS R it seems to be implemented (see OSS-Note 975954).
Is there any solution for a "normal" industry system ?
Thanks for answering
Edited by: Britta Heinsen on Jul 23, 2009 1:52 PMI don't think such an auto update is available. Infact I came to know that such an update is available in IS-R after reading your query.
Obviously you an always create a workflow based enhancement that can synchronize the Info-records and material master changes or sort of enhancement which regularly reads the material master change history for such changes and trigger a synchronization by executing change Info-record automatically. -
Authorisation object for "PO text in the material master"
Hi,
My requirement is as below:
"All users can see the Purchase Order Text as usual, but only a few users should be allowed to create / change the PO Long Text.
For other users, the same should appear in display mode only (both in creation & in change mode, MM01 & MM02)."
Please let me know, How to map this.
As per my knowledge thsi is possible only thru authorisation. But I want to know what is the authorisation object for "PO text in the material master" (Pl note that only for PO text in the material master field). we want control on "PO text of material master"
Regards.
ChinnaHi,
The authorisation object is "M_MATE_MAT", pl check

In PM order, can we change the material description for item category N?
Hi,
In Plant Maintenance work order, is there a way to change the material description while purchasing material (item category N) using a material master number? In config. the material description field is open for input. However on the work order components screen it becomes grey as soon as one enters a material master number.
Background: We want to maintain generic material master records in the system and use them for purchasing materials (item category N) on work orders so that the purchasing data defaults from the material master. But we need to be able to change the description per the specific requirement.
Similar functionality works on sales orders. Are we missing anything?Hi there,
One solution would be to have some generic materials created and used them during work order processing. These generic materials needs to be extended to all the required plants.
Hope this works,
Cheers !!!
